Greene responds to Malcolm Offord homophobia report

Responding to news that Reform UK's Scottish leader Malcolm Offord regaled a rugby club dinner with a homophobic comedy routine mocking George Michael's grieving partner, Scottish Liberal Democrat Jamie Greene MSP said:

“As a gay politician, I’ve been on the receiving end of some fairly unpleasant commentary over the years.

“You almost come to expect it from anonymous trolls on social media. You don’t, however, hear it from the mouths of political party leaders.

“I haven’t heard the joke in question. Perhaps Lord Offord can share it with the rest of the country in his next TV debate.

“Sadly, nothing surprises me anymore when it comes to the bile emanating from the mouth of Reform; one wonders how much lower they might sink.”
